Channel Five has produced a series of programmes on "Big Ideas that changed the world." The well know left wing British politican Tony Benn presented the one on "democracy". He rightly noted that democracy means "people power" (democracy comes from the Greek for "strength of the people" rather than demarchy which would be "rule by the people"). As such, he rightly broadened his discussion to bring in the trade unions and other popular movements rather dwell on elections, "majority rule" and other aspects of "democracy" so beloved of politicians. read full story / add a comment

In the past several months we have noticed a growing curiosity over developments in the South American country of Venezuela. Everywhere in our day-to-day projects, people are talking and asking about the populist government of Hugo Chavez and his self-proclaimed “Bolivarian Revolution”. However, we became particularly concerned in noticing no corresponding increase in anarchist knowledge of the situation read full story / add a comment

WHY IS THE concept of class so important to anarchists? Why are we constantly talking about classes and class struggle? Some of our opponents accuse us of living in the past, they claim the working class is dying out. After all you don't see too many workers wandering around in donkey jackets, cloth caps and heavy boots. So that settles the question, doesn't it? No, it doesn't, so let us get away from silly caricatures and get down to basics. read full story / add a comment

It goes without saying that the SWP are cock-a-hoop over Galloway being elected to Parliament on the Respect ticket. That he did so only by being parachuted into an East London consistency with a large Muslim community is commented upon less. Sadly, Galloway's previous constituent's in Glasgow did not have the chance to pass judgement on their "representative" -- for the obvious reason that he would not have won there. As such, any claim that Respect has broken the mould of British left-wing politics are still moot in the extreme. read full story / add a comment

Revolution! believes now is the time for libertarian communists to come together in order create an alternative not only to the capitalist parties and the system that they defend but also to the Leninist Left who would substitute themselves for our class in a revolution. It’s a tall order and we start from small beginnings but sitting by passively as our class is attacked again and again, as Imperialists carve up the world between them, or as the Leninists destroy the next revolution is surely not a real option

Wellman was not just an average Communist Party hack, but a middle-level
party functionary that, here and abroad, enforced the opportunistic twists
and turns of Stalin's ever-changing party line. To be an uncritical
supporter of Stalin and the Soviet Union then meant keeping on one's
ideological blinders. When Stalin exported his counter-revolution to Spain, Wellman was there to
do the Third International's dirty work. The mythology surrounding the
International Brigades, in which Wellman was a commissar in reality is overshadowed
by the arrival of Stalins dreaded NKVD which set up its own prisons and
torture chambers. read full story / add a comment

Ten years into our new bourgeois democracy and the ANC released a triumphalist analysis of its achievements entitled “Towards a 10-year Review”. But one has to go further back and look at the continental soil within which the roots of the “miracle” transition from racial class rule to deracialised class rule grew. Our analysis here is mainly extracted from an interview with the ZACF published by the 36-year-old British anarchist journal Black Flag. read full story / add a comment

South African and Zambian workers and peasants have a number of important connections. In the colonial period, both South Africa and Zambia were based on a system of racial capitalism- the super-exploitation of Black workers and peasants through the migrant labour, low wages, an absence of basic rights, and white domination of agriculture read full story / add a comment

Responding to the invitation extended a few days ago from Havana by Celia Hart Santamaria – member of the Cuban Communist Party and daughter of prominent figures of the regime – calling for discussions on leftist alternatives for Cuba’s future, and where she explicitly asks for an anarchist opinion, the Cuban
Libertarian Movement makes public its proposals for the debate. read full story / add a comment

The aim of this article is to show that Marx and Engels were deeply ambiguous on the nature of the state and the party, and that the criticisms by anarchists of them were and remain valid.Far from being utopian anarchism has the same materialist origins as Marxism and, far from being marginal, has had a huge influence among workers since the nineteenth century. read full story / add a comment

The question thrown up by the October revolution is fundamental. Once capitalism has been defeated, how is communism to be achieved? While there are certainly faults to be found with aspects of the anarchist movement, at least it cannot be criticised for getting the basics wrong. Anarchists have consistently argued that freedom and democracy are not optional extras. Rather they form part of the conditions necessary for the growth of communism. read full story / add a comment

For anarchists a person's full potential is most easily fulfilled in an environment of freedom. Rather than mechanically following orders, where one is essentially nothing more than the extension of another's will, in a free society people think and act for themselves. This in turn would enhance the society as a whole. read full story / add a comment

We politically-organized anarchists believe that the World Social Forum does not constitute an opposition space to the capitalist system. It is for this reason that we propose through the "Jornadas Anarquistas" the construction of an alternative that can provide us with the tools we need for the development of a struggle that can truly be an antagonist in the society in which we live. read full story / add a comment

Desde as últimas Jornadas Anarquistas de 2002 a conjuntura mundial pouco se alterou, entretanto a expansão imperialista norte-americana atingiu níveis de brutalidade e irracionalidade inimagináveis até pouco tempo atrás. Exemplos disto são o aumento do poderio militar norte-americano e do contingente de soldados nas mais diversas partes do mundo, que se configura no apoio irrestrito à política nazista do estado de Israel na opressão do povo palestino que encontra sua maior abominação na construção do grande campo de concentração na Faixa de Gaza e a intervenção no Iraque e sua justificativa que hoje até os próprios orgãos de informação do Império (Eua, Inglatera, Alemanha, entre outros) reconhecem que não tinha fundamento. read full story / add a comment |
